- 18 - is thus the trusting administrator of the empire. The state police must therefore manage the confiscated assets according to the principles of the Reich's financial administration and take care for the increase of the wealth to become. As a result of the seizure, the enemy's assets are not "enemy", i.e. Indirectly or directly under massive hostile influence more assets. To this view, the Reich Security Chief concluded and drew the following conclusion: Since the interests of the Reich always have to go ahead with the enemy, the measures of the State Police, which are aimed at confiscation and inclusion, are to be directed forward to those of the enemy commissioner, who has only enemy assets to evade the enemy's influence and who is only fiduciary administrator of the hostile property and whose administration is ended by the war. The legislator's intention was to remove the enemy's assets from hostile influence, but not to create a privilege for the enemy members to whom the decree on seizure and confiscation applies, in relation to the state-hostile German members of the Reich. From this and from the observation that the interests of the Reich must always precede dom Penalty, it follows that the provisions concerning the confiscation thus have as special laws the precedence before the regulation on the treatment of hostile delays of 15.1.194o. (Writing of the Chief of Security Police and SD to the Reichskommissar for the treatment of enemy assets of lo.7.1941 - II A 5 No. 145/41 - 212).
